This display showcases the latest from three fictional fireworks manufacturers.
- Don Vincenzo, a South-Italy based artisan group which focuses on beautiful and high-energy fireworks
- Tarvisium Pirotechnica, a North-East Italy based group focusing on Italo-Japanese shell design
- 独眼竜花火職人 (Dokuganryuu Hanabi Shokunin), a Japanese based artisan company focusing on carefully-made designs.
I tried not to saturate the sky too much, as that would completely destroy the concept of quality over quantity.

--Synopsis:
The show begins with small 115mm shells and some creative ghost-effect mines. Chrysanthemums add to the peonies, filling the sky with just 3 elements. The voyage proceeds and now a synchronized battery of mines, whistling pearls and a Saturn-effect shell completes the frame.
The pace picks up, crackling and strobing shells fill a sky which on the lower part is then composed of rapid comets following in succession. The following part is called "Reach for the Stars", where comets, whistling pearls move to simulate starships travelling towards a sea of stars.
The next section, "Myriad Colours" is all about aerial shells. Colour-changing, Saturns, Ghosts. Stutata shells will then light up the sky, with kamuro and golden trails. The show ends not with a rapid-fire succession of shells, but rather with some large "double" saturns, (imperfect since double, outward-angled rings are not possible). The final shell is a giant, 460mm Warimono.
